Hi,
This is my first post. My mom saw a MaryJane Farms magazine and told me she thought I would love it!! I bought it and loved it. My husband and I are always talking about slowing down and this magazine helps me focus a little down time. My husband grew up on 5 acres in a rural area (no farm, just land to run and play) I grew up moving all over,NY, CO, AZ, back to NY. I have been married since a month after my 18th birthday to my best friend since I was 15. We have 2 girls who are growing so fast!!! My oldest is 14 and youngest is 12. I have coached Softball for 9 years and teach American History. I love everything old. I miss my grandmother, she passed in 2002. I love researching family his. and learning to quilt. I love to bake and I am starteing my very first garden. I plotted out a 22 x 14 plot and I want to put a white picket fence around it! I just bought two dwarf cherry trees. My husband says I am crazy, but he loves me. So in 3 yrs, when my trees have cherries(finaly) I will make a cherry pie for my daughters grad. party and tell you all about it! |

Hi Niki!
Welcome to the forums! I am so glad you found MaryJanes Farm. There is nothing better than being able to chat with other farmgirls! I know what you mean about loving everyhing old. I used to tell my mom that I would have been happy being born about 100-150 years ago!
